Yes, I know the old stuff in the Writings section sucks - I was 17, be gentle. I'm thinking about switching out the old with some of the(relatively) new. I've been slacking off hardcore on writing anyway, so hopefully this will light a fire under my ass and get me to do more.
Also, the effect of emo kids on our culture has undeniably taken root, almost to the point that it has taken over weightlifting/exercise. I mentioned to someone that I was working out a diet plan for a serious cutting phase, and they asked me what was wrong. I started to say "I'm fat", but realized what they actually did there.
I reeeeeallly need to set aside some time to go see No Country For Old Men again before it leaves theaters. I'll probably follow that up with another viewing of There Will Be Blood, which was amazingly good and a great performance from Daniel Day-Lewis, but in no way did it shake NCFOM from its perch on my personal #1 of 2007 rating. Other than that, just looking forward to Cloverfield and (yeah, don't laugh) Rambo. I heard that the latter is actually way better than it has any right to be and very gory. Judging from the trailer on the innernets, I'll be there. At the very least, it'll be another good farewell to another one of Sly's franchises that has had its ins and outs - Rocky Balboa was a fantastic cap to the Rocky series and actually made me forgive IV and V.
Internet Meme That Needs To Die Now: LOLcats. They were better when they started off on a website that shall remain nameless due to anonymity and were referred to as "pictures of cats with amusing captions", but once icanhascheezeburger and LOLcats took over, the meme died and tons of unfunny morons the world around started systematically crowdfucking the corpse.
Hey, this blogging thing's sorta fun. Maybe I'll do it some more.
